Introduction The genus Scrobipalpa comprises about 270 species in the Palaearctic region (POVOLNY´, 2002; FALKOVITSH & BIDZILYA, 2003, 2006, 2009; BIDZILYA, 2009; BIDZILYA & LEE, 2010; HUEMER & KARSHOLT, 2010), five species in Australia (POVOLNY´, 1977), nearly 20 species in the Afrotropical region (BIDZILYA et al., 2011) and ten species in the Nearctic region (LEE et al., 2009). In Ukraine the genus Scrobipalpa is represented by about 40 species, of which 30 are known from the Crimea. As a result of many years observation of the biology and taxonomic study of Microlepidoptera in the Eastern Crimea by the second author, a long series of Scrobipalpa-species, restricted to halophilic habitats with Halimione verrucifera as a dominant plant, were collected. A recently published revision of European Gnorimoschemini (HUEMER & KARSHOLT, 2010) give us an opportunity to clearly identify all Scrobipalpa species, occurring in these habitats, two of which are described here as new. The type material is deposited in the Zoological Museum, Kiev National Taras Shevchenko University. The terminology of the genitalia follows HUEMER & KARSHOLT (2010).

Description (Figs. 1-5): Wingspan 13.2-14.0 mm. Head and thorax covered with grey, brown-tipped scales, frons light-grey to whitish, tegulae grey, mixed with light-brown; labial palpus strongly up-curved, segment 2 grey mottled with brown, with brush of short scales underside; segment 3 narrow, acute, brown with narrow light grey medial and apical rings; proboscis light grey. Scapus brown, other antennal segments brown with narrow grey rings at base. Forewing covered mainly with light grey, brown-tipped scales, costal margin, apex and termen darker, nearly blackish, veins and area along dorsum distinctly mottled with orange-brown. Brown subcostal spot at 1/4 and three dark spots in cell well developed. Fringe grey, brown-tipped. Hindwing and its fringe light grey. Variation: Some specimens with strongly developed orange-brown scales along veins and reduced black subapical streak and dark spots in cell (Fig. 3); in other cases, orange-brown pattern nearly reduced, but dark spots in cell surrounded by orange and additional two-three black points well expressed in basal 1/4 (Figs. 4-5). Male genitalia (Fig. 15): Tegumen narrow, prolonged. Uncus twice longer than broad, posterior margin with distinct medial depression. Gnathos short, narrow, weakly curved. Valva narrow, apical 1/4 broadly rounded, nearly exceeds the top of uncus. Sacculus about 1/4 length of valva, weakly curved inwards, outer margin strongly curved, with pointed tips. Vincular processes short, very narrow, curved outwardly towards tips of sacculus, separated by deep and broad medial incision. Tegumen moderately broad. Saccus gradually narrowed apically. Aedeagus straight, nearly as long as the length of tegumen, basal portion weakly swollen, slightly broader than distal portion, apical cornutus distinct, weakly curved basally. Variation: Saccus slightly varies in width. Female genitalia (Figs. 17-18): Papilla analis suboval, sparsely covered with short setae. Apophyses anteriores moderately broad, about as long as the length of segment VIII, straight, five times shorter, than apophyses posteriores. Segment VIII about as long as broad, subgenital plates narrow, broadly separated, with small foamy sclerotized patterns at anterior-medial corner. Subostial lobes broad, rounded apically, not exceeding proximal margin of segment VIII, entirely covered with microtrichia, separated by deep triangular incision. Ductus bursae moderately broad, colliculum narrow, ring-shaped. Corpus bursae rounded, signum long, weakly curved, horn-shaped, with short teeth basally, placed at the right side of the entrance of bursae copulatrix. Variation: The teeth at the base of signum vary in length; signum from weakly curved to nearly straight. Diagnosis: S. halimifolia Bidzilya & Budashkin, sp. n., externally resembles S. artemisiella (Treitschke, 1833) and S. pauperella (Heinemann, 1870) having light-brown forewing with dark blackish veins and sometimes with dark spots in cell. The new species resembles S. hendrikseni Huemer & Karsholt, 2010 and S. golovushkini Bidzilya, 2009 in the male genitalia, having narrow and straight vincular processes separated by broad medial emargination on the posterior margin of vinculum. It differs from both species in curved inwards sacculus and shorter valvae, which do not exceed the posterior margin of uncus; the new species may be separated additionally from S. hendrikseni by the shorter aedeagus, and from S. golovushkini by the nearly sub- rectangular rather than apically narrowed uncus. The new species also resembles S. subnitens Povolny´, 1969 from Mongolia, but can be recognized by longer valvae and narrower uncus. The female genitalia of new species are most similar to those of S. pulchra Povolny´, 1967 and S. clintoni Povolny´, 1968, but differ from the first species in distinctly separated subostial lobes and from the later species in strongly foamy sculptured subgenital plates and smaller basal plate of signum. Bionomy: The larva mines the leaves of Halimione verrucifera (Figs. 13-14). In the type locality larvae are observed annually from the second decade of May to the first decade of June. The larvae live in large spot-like mines on the leaves of host plant. Usually the larvae change several mines during their life. Pupation takes place 390 SHILAP Revta. lepid., 39 (156), diciembre 2011 389-396 Two new species of the 3/1/12 10:56 Página 391 TWO NEW SPECIES OF THE GENUS SCROBIPALPA JANSE, 1951 FROM THE EASTERN CRIMEA outside of the larval habitation (in plant litter or in the upper layer of ground) in a light whitish cocoon. The pupal stage continues for nearly two weeks without diapause. The adults were observed from the end of May to early September in Halimione habitats (Figs. 9-12), probably in 2-3 generations. All specimens were collected in the evening before sunset. Distribution: Eastern Crimea (Ukraine). Etymology: The specific name is derived from the Latin folium - leaf, referring to the feeding of larva on the leaves of Halimione. Scrobipalpa griseoflava Bidzilya & Budashkin, sp. n. Type material.

  • Lepidoptera, Gelechiidae)
    ACTA ENTOMOLOGICA MUSE! NATIONALIS PRAGAE VOL. 39 1977 A contribution to the knowledge of the tribe Gnorimoschemini of Far East (Lepidoptera, Gelechiidae) DALIBOR POVOLNY College of Agriculture, Brno Although mur.h attention has been paid tc the tribe Gnorimoschemini of Ge­ lechiidae during the last twenty years, practically nothing was knoWii, so far, about its members of Eastern Asia and Japan. A few individuals of the genus Scrobipalpa Janse were known from Japan, but no series basic for serious investigations were available. During the recent three years, limited series of moths of this tribe could be concentrated, mainly due to the efforts of Japanese lepidopterists. This material supplemented by a few other individuals is the basis for this paper. It coulQ. be objected that compared with materials studied and/or available from other mainly eremic parts of Asia this material is limited. This is certainly true. But this difficulty is obviously caused not only by possibly limited efforts in collecting Gnorimoschemini in Eastern Asia, but also by the fact that both number and density of the species there is limited, too. - The reasons to publish this contribution are mainly two: First, it is evident that especially the synu~ies of this tribe in the arboreal zone or tier of the Far East show clear taxonomic and biogeographic affinities to the adequate synusies of the Western Palaearctis, mainly of Europe as indicated yet by the investigations in the Gno­ rimoschemini of Mongolia (Povolny, 1973). Therefore also the species of the genus Oaryocol11,m Gregor & Povolny are included, although it was impossible for the time being to identify all of them exactly.

Abstract The comparative faunistic analysis of species diversity of family Gelechiidae in Islands of Peter the Great Gulf and in neighboring continental territories is made. The island fauna turned out depleted because of small size of islands, limited landscape diversity and impossibility of active moth migration due to their weak flying abilities. However the concentration of species diversity in islands is almost two orders of magnitude larger than that in continental part.

ZooKeys 921: 65–140. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.921.49197 Abstract The checklist of European Gelechiidae covers 865 species, belonging to 109 genera, with three species records which require confirmation. Further, it is the first checklist to include a complete coverage of proved syno- nyms of species and at generic level. The following taxonomic changes are introduced:Pseudosophronia con- stanti (Nel, 1998) syn. nov. of Pseudosophronia exustellus (Zeller, 1847), Metzneria expositoi Vives, 2001 syn. nov. of Metzneria aestivella (Zeller, 1839); Sophronia ascalis Gozmány, 1951 syn. nov. of Sophronia grandii Hering, 1933, Aproaerema incognitana (Gozmány, 1957) comb. nov., Aproaerema cinctelloides (Nel & Var- enne, 2012) comb. nov., Aproaerema azosterella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1854)comb. nov., Aproaerema montanata (Gozmány, 1957) comb. nov., Aproaerema cincticulella (Bruand, 1851) comb. nov., Aproaerema buvati (Nel, 1995) comb. nov., Aproaerema linella (Chrétien, 1904) comb. nov., Aproaerema captivella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1854) comb. nov., Aproaerema semicostella (Staudinger, 1871) comb.

Supplement No. 4 : 109-1 17 ; 30.XI. 1992 ISSN 0342-7536 Gelechiidae collected during 13 years of regular light trapping near a farm in southern Denmark (Lepidoptera) Ole Karsholt, Zoologisk Museum, Universitetsparken 15, DK-2100, Kobenhavn 0, Denmark. Summary A mercury vapour light trap placed near a farm in southern Denmark was operated for 13 years. During 641 nights 12,879 specimens of Gelechiidae were captured, identified and counted. Three quarters of these belonged to two common species. The remaining specimens represented 68 species. The trap thus captured some 40% of the 164 Gelechiidae recorded from Denmark, and almost two-thirds of the species found in the faunistic district of South Zealand. Some species of special faunistic interest are discussed. It is concluded that automatic light trapping provides a relatively good picture of the composition of the night-flying Lepidoptera fauna in a given area, and it also provides data on abundance and fluctuation of the more common species. No evidence of long-term changes in population size of the species due to the light trapping was found. Introduction From 1973 to 1985 I collected moths regularly using a light trap in southern Denmark.

M. Ibrahim Economic Entomology Dept., Fac. Agric., Kafr El-Sheikh Univ., Egypt. ARTICLE INFO Abstract: Article History Due to the significant economic losses of the sugar beet crop Received: 1/ 2 / 2020 caused by the cotton leaf worm Spodoptera sp. (littoralis and exigua) Accepted: 29/ 3/2020 and the sugar beet moth Scrobipalpa ocellatella (Boys.) (Lepidoptera : Keywords Gelechiidae), as well as the desire to reduce the use of traditional Scrobipalpa ocellatella, insecticides for their harms, this study was conducted during seasons; Spodoptera littoralis, 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 at shenno village, Kafr El-Sheikh Spodptera exigua, Governorate .The aim was to evaluate alternatives to traditional ecdysone agonists, insecticides represented by five ecdysone agonists. It also assesses its alternatives, arthropod, role in maintaining the presence of arthropod predators associated with predators and sugar these pests in the field. Results showed that the tested ecdysone beet. agonists and the tested insecticides were similar in reducing the number of Spodoptera sp. larvae. The all tested insecticides induced above 92% reduction in Spodoptera sp. larvae number in the both study seasons. As for the arthropod predators associated with Spodoptera sp., the maximum overall mean reduction was 31.59% and 11.57% during the first and second seasons respectively Compared to traditional insecticides (99.38% and 98.68% in 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 seasons respectively).
